A present full of presents – Bella Blvd – Merry Little Christmas

Hello Magpies, Amy here with another festive layout. I have used Bella Blvd‘s Merry Little Christmas collection. I love the bright bold colours.

Surprise…A Present full of Presents!

I am documenting some photos from Christmas 2022 when my son opened one of his presents only to find it full of tiny wrapped presents. I just love the expression in the last photo.

I created a vertical design by placing lots of stripes of patterned paper down one side of my page. I also added the long length stickers from the sticker sheet. I then added some white and some deep blue seam binding. I am loving this. Its so much easier to use than I thought it might be. I simply stuck a length of double sided tape down where I wanted the fabric to run. You then just scrunch and fold the seam binding against the tape and it stays in place. It adds wonderful dimension and texture to the layout.

I added some gold mixed media to my background in the form of Miner Miner 49er Inklingz. When this was dry I added my three photos to the page.

I added  my titles in a mixture of fonts, the gold puffy stickers are by Doodlebug. I used some red and green Bella Blvd alphas and mixed in some blues too. It was a long title so by using different sticker sets it meant I knew I had enough vowels etc.

To finish off my layout I added a Christmas tree sticker and arrow. Then I used the Father Christmas Bella Pop set to add a fun whimsical feel to my layout. I also used the little presents and snowflakes that come in the pack. They make it super easy to add dimension and interest to your page.

Thanks for taking a closer look at my layout. I’m curious if you’re still scrapping festive photos. I have a few more layouts using this collection to share with you in a few days time, so until then, Take Care,
